My children are hummers. It must be a genetic condition, because they all do it. They seem to feed off of each other- one child will hum a few bars from "Happy Birthday" or the "Star Wars" theme song, and the others will join in one by one until a veritable jubilee of humming, whistling, knee-slapping and foot-stomping erupts. For kicks, sometimes me or Matt will quietly sing a few notes from a familiar song from the next room, just to see how long it takes for it to infect the rest of the children (not long!) Four out of the five older children are also whistlers, which snowballs through them the same way. Here they are humming some of the "Carol of the Bells". Somebody please tell these kids Christmas is OVER!
